    I take a vitamin c and a vitamin d every day, just to avoid catching the colds going around in the office and vit d because winter is coming. No protein powder for me, I hate the taste...

    IMO, most supplements are a waste of money. I used to use whey protein, but don't much anymore unless I know I'm really low for some reason...I generally get plenty of protein just eating. I'm vitamin D deficient so I take 5,000 IU vitamin D. I take a magnesium supplement on the advice of my former trainer because I used to have a lot of problems with cramping when I was working out and that helped a lot...that's about it.

    I think supplements are fine when you're low on something specific...but some people go to crazy town with supplements and IMO they're not really getting much benefit for the $$$ they're spending.

    I like food. I use a little protein powder only to mix in to natural yoghurt to sweeten and flavour it, and in my protein pancakes when I have them....
